Here are a couple of relevant World Wide Web resources: The "Lurker's Guide to Babylon 5" has a plot summary that series' episode called "The War Prayer" at http://www.hyperion.com/lurk/guide/007.html On April 22, 1995, there was a world premier performance of The War Prayer Oratorio (Music by Herbert Haufrecht, Libretto by Mark Twain), at the Ulster Choral Society, Kingston, N.Y. An announcement and reproduction of its poster can be found at http://www.mhrcc.org/kingston/ucsevent.html The poster shows Union and Confederate flags so they apparently thought the story was about the Civil War, not the Philippine-American War that inspired it.
